This is ELFM's second Live@Chapel festival: ten days of words and music broadcasting live from Seacroft Methodist Chapel on www.elfm.co.uk
The concept is simple: bring together 500 of the best storytellers, musicians, poets, writers, actors, DJs, comedians, school-children and singers in a beautiful old Methodist Chapel in East Leeds.
On Sunday 17th June, Father’s Day, we present the ELFM Readathon. A team of volunteers will read all 300 pages of The Plot — Madeleine Bunting’s memoir of her father and the Chapel he built in North Yorkshire.
From Monday 18th to Friday 22nd June, we’ll be broadcasting a whole range of programmes between 1pm and midnight every day. From 7pm until 9pm each evening we have something a bit special and we would like to invite you to come and be the perfect studio audience (pews provided!)…
…Monday: The Seven Seas: A Story Telling Cabaret with music from the Ocean Loiners.
…Tuesday: A Night of Two Johns with poet John Hegley and band Spirit of John.
…Wednesday: You’ll have to Kill for a Seat to get into our Chuckle in the Chapel comedy extravaganza.
…Thursday: The Wireless Room — a live radio play based on the telegraph communications from the Titanic — followed by a live session from Leeds legend Brendan Croker.
…Friday: Play*Write*Hear pursues the whole theme of radio drama with guest speaker Gary Brown of the BBC, and music from the lovely Lunchtime Disco Club.
In true ELFM tradition, all our evening specials are Pay What You Want. All monies raised will go to the Friends of chapELFM Fund.

7pm Friday 22nd June: Play*Write*Hear...
An evening celebrating the wonder that is radio drama: a brand new radio play written and performed by young people from ELFM’s Next Generation programme; an interview with the team who brought you the Ika-Roa drama series and a discussion with writer and BBC Radio Drama Producer Gary Brown. As a writer Gary’s credits include EastEnders, Brookside and Coronation Street. As a Producer he recently
won a Sony Gold Award for his production of Every Child Matters by Christopher Reason.
Music during the evening will come from Lunchtime Disco Club. Led by the lovely Zoë Eady, you can look forward to a collection of clever, funny
songs; mostly cheerful, though occasionally sad and tragic, all performed with wit and grace by Zoe and her Club.
